The elderly man in charge was astonished and deeply shocked.
He could sense that the light barrier enveloping them did not contain any fluctuations in soul power, but only a slight spiritual force.
Could this be the Saintess's domain?!
Unaware that the old man in charge had misunderstood, Qian Yuelong set up a soundproof barrier and then got straight to the point: "For the upcoming Soul Ring Hunt, I think we should split into two groups. You and ten Temple Knights will take four Soul Master newbies to hunt for their fourth Soul Rings, while I will go find a suitable Soul Beast for the third Soul Ring chosen by my teacher."
As if suddenly doused with a bucket of ice water, the old man's excited heart froze instantly, and a chill began to spread from his scalp. His expression changed drastically: "How can you use this, Holy Maiden! You can't! Even if it's not a large soul beast forest like Sunset Forest or Star Dou Great Forest, there are countless powerful and dangerous soul beasts in medium-sized soul beast forests!"
"You misunderstand. It wasn't really me alone. After separating from you, I could openly have the Dark Soul Guards by my side to help me hunt for my third soul ring. That would save me a lot of trouble, and I wouldn't have to worry about my disguise falling apart in front of them, or being on edge the whole way," Qian Yuelong explained.
The elderly person in charge: "?"
Of course not, Holy Maiden!
This really won't do, my goodness!
If Elder Yue knew that he had sent the Holy Maiden to hunt for the third spirit ring alone, he would kill him!
Even with the Dark Soul Guards, it won't work!
The elderly man in charge was shocked and was about to persuade Qian Yuelong to return when she stopped him with her next reason:
“I’m not sure if I can withstand a soul ring of several thousand years for my third soul ring. As you know, my first and second soul rings were both at the thousand-year level.” Qian Yuelong looked at him calmly and brought out her trump card: “My teacher also said that although there are examples of soul masters who increase the age of their earlier soul rings as they cultivate, there is no example like me who has 20 levels of innate full soul power and the first soul ring of a thousand years as soon as I awakened my martial soul. So far, there has never been an example like this.”
"Those four newcomers have a bright future, and I don't want them to have their bright futures ruined when I absorb my third soul ring, which is beyond my age limit. So it's best to separate them for soul hunting later."
Give a slap followed by a sweet treat.
The elderly man in charge felt a sinking feeling in his heart and his brows furrowed.
indeed.
The saintess is not only special in her identity, but more importantly, she has an outrageous soul ring configuration.
Both the first and second spirit rings are thousand-year spirit rings!
This is unprecedented in mainland China!
However, this also meant that the Holy Maiden should not be exposed in the open before she had fully grown up. Otherwise, why would they have secretly sent her to the Martial Soul Arena instead of sending her to the Spirit Hall Academy, which had better teaching resources?
After a flurry of thoughts, the elderly man in charge stepped back.
"Then, please be careful, Holy Maiden. After we finish hunting for the soul rings for those four Soul Sect newcomers, we will send out a signal flare. If you haven't found the Rainbow-Patterned Golden King Python by then, you don't need to worry about it. We will be stationed on the outskirts of Senli and wait for you to obtain your third soul ring."
"One more thing. If you have enough manpower, I suggest that you swap one of your Dark Soul Guards with Lu Ming. Lu Ming is an agility-type Battle Soul Emperor, and his Martial Soul is the Blazing Dragon Eagle. He is good at reconnaissance and is the most suitable candidate to assist you in finding the Rainbow-Patterned Golden King Python."
The Rainbow-Patterned Golden King Python was the third soul ring beast that Yue Guan chose for Qian Yuelong. It was a mutated Golden King Python, even rarer than the Azure Flame Lotus.
To find the trail of the Rainbow-Patterned Golden King Python, a Soul Master with strong spiritual power is needed to act as a human-shaped detector.
Unfortunately, Yue Guan was also tied up with trivial matters and was unable to leave for the time being, so he had to take charge himself. He had no choice but to ask the Guardian Knights of the Spirit Hall stationed in Luger Town to take charge of the Spirit Arena.
Because the captain of the Guardian Knights, that Soul Emperor who was over level 60, was an agility-based character with a martial soul that excelled at reconnaissance.
Qian Yuelong readily agreed: "Sure. Let him come directly over. Please pack up the tent for me first, I won't be going back. You can choose one of you to switch with Lu Ming."
When she said her last words, Qian Yuelong removed the soundproof barrier, clearly speaking to the Dark Soul Guards who were guarding her from the shadows.
Within seconds, the weakest Soul Saint among the accompanying Temple Knights emerged, wearing that black bodysuit.
The elderly man in charge bowed slightly to Qian Yuelong, his lips moving slightly as he channeled his soul power into a whisper, speaking something to the Soul Saint-level Soul Guard.
The latter nodded calmly, without showing any surprise or disapproval, which made the old man in charge secretly sigh in admiration at the high quality of this generation of Dark Soul Guards.
A few minutes later, Lu Ming, the squad leader who had already given instructions to the other subordinate knights, walked over with a solemn expression and bowed respectfully to Qian Yuelong.
Qian Yuelong nodded slightly, then moved and flew away into the distance.
Lu Ming pushed off with his foot and hurriedly chased after him.
After being a kilometer or two away from the campsite, Qian Yuelong stopped. In front of Lu Ming and the other Dark Soul Guards who appeared from the shadows, she removed the stilts that made her feet ache and the stuffy black robe disguise, put them into the soul tool on her wrist, and put the Moon Shadow Veil she was wearing back into her personal wardrobe. She breathed out a breath of fresh air.
This smooth and effortless maneuver left Lu Ming, who had also weathered many storms, speechless.
stilts
For a moment, he didn't know whether to be shocked by the legendary saintess's childlike appearance or by this outrageous operation that most people probably couldn't even imagine.
Yun Yi and the others, who had been following Qian Yuelong for almost half a year, accepted the situation without changing their expressions.
The saintess probably had no idea that they had also seen her sneaking out of her hotel room to buy wine from the shops on the trading street, and that this had been recorded in their report.
Because none of them noticed at first that the saintess had left the hotel room.
It wasn't until the paladin knights changing shifts were strolling through the city that they unexpectedly spotted the familiar silver-haired girl in a transparent glass case on the street, and realized with shock that none of them had noticed the saintess was no longer in her room.
I also saw the saint buying wine.
Yes, I heard that the saintess had been kept in secret for a long time. Children of this age are generally curious, which is understandable.
I wonder what the Elders of the Moon will think after seeing the report.
"Lu Ming, is it?" Qian Yuelong looked at the silent knight.
Lu Ming straightened his back a little. "Yes, Holy Maiden."
"The soul beast I'm looking for is a mutated Rainbow-Patterned Golden King Python, and its cultivation level should be between two and four thousand years!"
Upon hearing Qian Yuelong's words, Lu Ming's pupils contracted sharply, and his heart skipped a beat.
Two thousand years... to four thousand years?!
But isn't the Holy Maiden only a Soul Master? This is only her third Soul Ring!
